I am a law librarian, now working independently as a consultant in information management, knowledge management, records management, library management and legal process improvement. I am also a writer, blogger, speaker and teacher. I have a wide range of interests and learn about Wikipedia by editing pages and creating a few pages I notice missing. Advice welcome!

Disclaimer
editFrom time to time I create Wikipedia pages in conjunction with paid projects I work on as a consultant. This is not a major source of income for me, and I do not advertise this as a service. I believe in the objectives of Wikipedia, and use the creation of a Wikipedia page as an opportunity to explain the objectives of Wikipedia to my clients. I welcome questions and concerns about this.
